    Would highly doubt this car would have a v10 or v12. The car doesn't look like it'd cost more than $50,000. It would more than likely have a turbocharged i4 or some kind of V6 while being primarily FWD, and possibly on some trims - AWD. Based on the frontend shape that is, idk if a longitudinal V8 would be able to fit in there.

    I would love a modern muscle car in the game but...I doubt this would be it. It would be nice though, considering we don't even have a single muscle car that isn't ~40-50 years old in the game.

    Back on topic, it seems to me it's based on a modern Mazda/Genesis - while not being an overly luxurious vehicle. Hence why I would suspect it'd have a TT-V6 at most.

    edit

    Looking at it again, there is some slight hope that it is indeed a modern muscle car (I do see the Charger influence), but I'm not setting myself up for disappointment though. I'd be happy with either just would highly prefer a modern V8 muscle car or anything modern with a V8 really.

    Not much to go off of though to have a concrete idea of the powertrain/drivetrain but, I still stick by my original idea of it being an FWD car with AWD on different trims. I do hope it's a modern RWD muscle car though, we really do need something of that nature here.

    The space from the firewall to the front axle is far too long for a transverse car, unless you are thinking an extreme transverse FMF. Longitudinal FMF could be argued for, but this isn't an old french car. If anything, there isn't enough in the picture to be speculating about such things.

    I think that if it is a sedan SUV then it’s probably based off (or at least inspired by) the BMW X6

    Why is it every time I see "The car looks like this IRL car" I can only conclude that the poster is blind and needs their eyes testing?

    Because your brain probably doesn't work this way. It's all a matter of imagination.

    Sucks for them because it's obviously a mark 2 humvee carbon copy. all you have to do is squint real hard and imagine harder.

    I think but I'm not sure about it because there's a hood, but maybe, (I said MAYBE), that boi will have an engine (I'm not sure)

    There's a slight possibility that it will have a suspension as well

    Almost looks like a Ferrari f12 mabey a supercar I belive the Ferrari has a v12 so it's definitely possibly that the dev car could have one but the Ferraris hood is super long compared to the one in the picture the devs gave us also the dev car is 4 doors so I'm not sure.

    It looks like a Mazda 6 and a Dodge Charger had a baby.

    I'm curious as to your opinion on my "Fusion/Mondeo in the front, Charger in the back" idea, so... thoughts?

    Anyone else think that this car would fit into an already existing lore? To me, this car looks like it would fit into the Cherrier lore more than anything else.

    So,

    I really liked what @esesel drew, that's why I took what he made, and improved some stuff :

    Scan04102021134934_001.jpg Scan04102021134934_002.jpg Scan04102021134934_003.jpg

    On the front fender, I see a line that is horizontal to the ground, and then becomes perpendicular to it in a 90 degree angle, which makes a really rectangular and sporty look.

    On the front bumper, we can see some kind of small lights under the small headlights, and I didn't hear anybody about it, so I added them too. The lower part of the bumper isn't visible on the teaser, because there's a 3 yo child's drawing on it (sorry to criticize your art Jared Samuelson), but I really think that the rectangular shape will stay.

    That's why I made two cars with a "Sport/Looking package" and another one without anystuff like this.

    I also added rims.

    But the most important part is that I made the sedan, but also a coupé and a wagon !

    I had some doubts about these variants, because I did not think that the front will be matching with the rear, but in fact, they're quite nice in my opinion... ;)

    (As I already said when I posted my drawings on these forums, I'm not a professional artist and I'm very sorry if my drawing hurt your eyes and make you blind or something)

    In terms of "which brand this car is gonna go with", err... I don't really know... I mean , the double headlights could mean a Cherrier, but this kind of vehicle is not french at all ; if devs wanted to make a french car, they'd rather do some kind of minivan like a Renault Scénic, a SUV, like a Peugeot 3008 or even a Twingo, but not a midsize sedan...



    The design, doesn't really seem to be italian too, but in my opinion, it could be Japanese (maybe a new Pessima ?), American (with a good ol' V8 and crazy police configs), or German (with a sporty V8, so maybe a new ETK...).






    In terms of motorisations, I do think that its gonna have some kind of electric variant, and maybe hybrid. If the car is not German or American, I guess that we have to say goodbye to the V8.

    So we'll probably have :

    - A lot of I4
    - Some kind of I6 or maybe V6 for top trims
    - If sold in Europe : diesel I4 and I6
    - If American or German : A V8
    - An hybrid variant (maybe)
    - Probably a full electric car, and maybe some kind of EV performance.

    Btw, if devs can make an hybrid powertrain for that bad boy, I'm pretty sure that the Vivace for example will also recieve some kind of hybridation...

    I also imagine a race config with a similar spoiler (I don't have the exact term)



    That's all !

    I'm just going to say that I doubt it'd be German. The main reason is because we already have the ETK 800 series, and whenever that gets a content pass a sedan and/or facelift might happen, which would give us a modern German sedan (and thus a modern European sedan in general).
